v0.7.5 Released - Research, Nebulas and Orbitals

A new patch has been released for v0.7.5

This patch includes:

• Research has been enabled

• Research is performed automatically by the computer as the captain is obviously inebriated

• Researching occurs in a round robin fashion and might stall if any resources are missing

• Research also lists the spent resources so you can keep track of how must you've invested into a tech

• Active researching is indicated above the profile menu below your resources

• Orbital stations has been added, you can now hover above them (indicatated visually where) to discover new tech or perhaps even aquire some loot

• At least 6 different techs can be discovered, some are known from the start - some has to be discovered

• Nebula has been added to the game, watch out for the statics that comes with them

• Proper death animation added to the game

• Godot had an update - so the base underlying code was checked during version bump to ensure everything is ok

• Godot 4.5 comes with "Shader packing" which in short pre-packs and preps multiple visual aspects of the game which can lead to less stuttering and "graphical" loading glitches

• Added active dialog window from computer in the actual game with the correct obfuscated computerized language we all love

• Added a talk label above the ship allowing the captain to make comments during drive and to display results of discovery events on orbitals

• Enriched some effects around the sun

• General script refactoring surrounding every aspect that touch and integrates with the newly added features and adjusted features

Stay safe and drift proper!
